I wanted to write because i have taken 4 altogether hpt's and they all were negative. I was wondering if anyone else has had the same thing even though I havent had a AF since June 30th and still no signs of starting. I have been having headaches a lot and cramping (which i never get). I was just wondering of anyones advice to if there is a chance I am pg or I just dont know what to think? Please just respond to your thoughts!!! Kelly

hello, I had to write because back in june, I was 40 days late for af(I think) and showed no signs of it coming either. I must have taken about six hpt all throughout and each one was negative. It turns out that I needed provera to jump start my period and it came like clockwork the next month. I do not know how old you are, I will be 40 in two months so mine might have been partly due to age. it could also be due to a hormonel imbalance. whatever the cause, it is very important if you have not done so to see a doctor to get properly evaluated on the cause so they can remedy the situation. I was 15 or 16 days late this month and was convinced that I would have to go back to the doctor and get help again. I did not think of pregnancy because I took two pregnancy tests the day after my missed period and they were both negative. imagine my surprise when I took one, two and three tests yesterday and they all came out posative! out of curiosity when did you take your last hpt?

I wanted to ask you angelhair, you said that when you took the hpt the day after you missed your period it came out negative, now my quastion for you is ( How long after that did you go to the Dr to find out that you where pregnant?) Bec i'm going through the same thing, my period was due july 17th and i tooke a hpt the day after i missed my peirod it out negative and then i when to the Dr the 19th and tooke another one and it came out negative and then i tooke one yesterday agian and it came out negative, that's three pregnancy test all together, do you think is too soon? or was it the same for you too? let me know how long did you wait to take the test again when you got pasative!!!

Hi,

I was wondering were you trying to get pg? I'm 38 and will be 39 in Dec. I have 3 boys ages 4,15,17 and would like to have one more (husband is not so sure) anyway I am 9 days late (we were not trying this time) I took a test Sun 5 days late it was neg spotted slightly Mon afternoon then a little yesterday and last night my dr's nurse told me to take another test this morning it was neg also still spotting very little. I had a 4 day af on june 30 and 7 day af on july 15 nothing since. how long did you wait until you got provera? Also are you in good health and average weight? I'm about 70 lbs overweight and I want to lose it before I try again because of High blood pressure.

Thanks,

Rhonda

I am not sure what to do I am 22 years old and I have had that problem before about 3 years ago when i didnt have my period for 3 months but I dunno. I took my last hpt yesterday and I used a clear blue easy (one that is highly accurate). So I figured i am going to wait until next week and if there is no period im going to forget hpts and go to the dr.But thanks for your response
